Good day after the 4th of July to you! I hope that you had a wonderful holiday celebrating the independence of our nation. Our day included family, friends and fireworks. It was a good day and I find myself filled with Thanksgiving, reflecting on the glorious beauty displayed in the sky last night. My friend picked (what happened to be front row seats for the fireworks display), even though we arrived after hundreds of others! The display was filled with beauty. And the pictures do ...

Good morning!I've just discovered the joy of soaking my oatmeal... I love doing prep work ahead for any meal anyway and love the creamy texture that it brings!

For the Love of Lamp Light
Good Friday morning to you! I hope you have had a wonder filled week. Just stopping in to share some lamp light love.
